Where would blood go when it leaves through the pulmonary artery?

...to the lungs.


How would you define pulmonary circulation?

pulmonary circulation the flow of blood from the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen, and back through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium.


How does the pulmonary vein bring oxygenated blood to the heart?

Your body picks up oxygen in your lungs. Your right ventricle pumps blood through your pulmonary artery to your lungs. Your blood picks up oxygen in your lungs. From there, it needs to get to the rest of your body. How can it do that? Something has to send it there. Let's send it through a vein to the heart. Maybe we can get the heart to send the oxygenated blood to the rest of the body. The pulmonary vein brings oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart. Then the heart takes that blood and pumps it through arteries to the rest of the body. After the oxygen leaves the blood it returns by way of veins. Under what conditions would a vein contain oxygenated blood?


Where would the blood go from the right ventricle?

From the right ventricle, the blood with flow through the pulmonary trunk and to the lungs.


Pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood between the and?

"Pulmonary" nearly always refers to lungs. De-oxygenated blood* circulates through the pulmonary artery, which comes off the left ventricle of the heart, through capillaries in the lungs to pick up oxygen, and returns through the pulmonary vein to the right atrium of the heart. The lung tissue DOES have its own blood supply however, and that might also be what you would call "pulmonary circulation." This is accomplished through bronchial arteries and veins. (Arteries carry blood away from the heart, where veins carry blood to the heart.) Given your question, it would be the easiest to say that pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood between the heart and the lungs. *Which is NEVER blue, common misconception.


How many loops must blood circulate through?

MUST would be two : systemic & pulmonary.


How many heart valves would a blood cell travelling from the renal vein the the pulmonary vein pass through?

Two, the blood will flow into the right atrium through the tricuspid valve (#1) into the right ventricle. The right ventricle will contract and send the blood through the pulmonary semilunar valve (#2) to the lung. The blood will return through the pulmonary vein but will not pass through any more heart valves until it passes the left atrium.


What sends oxygenated blood from heart to body?

The circulatory system which includes the heart and arteries carry oxygenated blood to the body cells.


What is pulmonary?

Pulmonary is a term that is relating to the lungs. When someone has a high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, they would have pulmonary hypertension.


What happens when pulmonary vein and artery connect?

This is called a shunt. One that occur between the Pulmonary artery and the Pulmonary vein, would be a left to right shunt. So what would happen? The blood from the Pulmonary vein (having the high pressure) would enter the Pulmonary artery. The results would be that the blood just goes back to the lung for another cycle with be deoxygenated.


How many heart valves would a blood cell travelling from the renal vein to the pulmonary vein pass through?

Two valves
